Broken and Smoking


Broken and Smoking
"A bruised reed shall He not break, and the smoking flax shall He not quench"   
(Isaiah 42:3).

Then I may reckon upon tender treatment from my LORD.
 Indeed, I feel myself to be at best as weak, as pliant, as worthless as a reed. Someone said, "I don't care a rush for you"; and the speech, though unkind, was not untrue.
 Alas! I am worse than a reed when it grows by the river, for that at least can hold up its head.
 I am bruised -- sorely, sadly bruised. 
There is no music in me now; there is a rift which lets out all the melody. 
Ah, me! Yet Jesus will not break me; and if He will not, then I mind little what others try to do. 
O sweet and compassionate LORD, I nestle down beneath Thy protection and forget my bruises! Truly I am also fit to be likened to "the smoking flax," whose light is gone, and only its smoke remains.

 I fear I am rather a nuisance than a benefit.
 My fears tell me that the devil has blown out my light and left me an obnoxious smoke, and that my LORD will soon put an extinguisher upon one. 
Yet I perceive that though there were snuffers under the law, there were no extinguishers, and Jesus will not quench me; therefore, I am hopeful. 
LORD, kindle me anew and cause me to shine forth to Thy glory and to the extolling of Thy tenderness.

PRAYER
 Marvelous God Almighty, I come to you in the precious name of Jesus,
who died for me to make me free of sin,
 I want Jesus to enter into my heart and make me free,
I confess that He is the son of God.
I ask to change my heart and to give me the wisdom to understand your Holy Word,
 full of promises of eternal value,
 not only to live on this earth but to be expectant of my life in heaven.
In the precious name of Jesus I ask. 
AMEN

 “The true minister of Christ knows, that the true value of a sermon must lie, 
not in its fashion and manner,
 but in the truth which it contains. ~ 
 C. H. Spurgeon ~ 


PRAYER 
 Father, I ask You to bless my friends,
 Show them a new revelation of Your love and power. 
 Holy Spirit, I ask You to minister to their spirit at this very moment. 
Where there is a pain, give them Your peace and mercy. 
 Where there is self-doubt, release a renewed confidence through 
Your grace. 
Where there is a need, I ask you to fulfill their needs. 
Bless their homes, families, finances, their goings, and their comings.
Amen.
